nikolai is a slender, average-height boy who always manages to wear black. his hair is silverish, somewhat long but also neat. he has gray eyes and pale skin, an expertly sculpted face. he spends a lot of his time sewing, since he is surprisingly good at making clothes. he's kind and polite, not too loud. he's very pleasant to be around, basically. he has a bad habit of smoking, though. he's afraid of centipedes but hates all the insects-- with the exception of fluffy moths.
